 HARTFORD, April 15, 1887.
 Especial to the JOURNAL CoUR1ERl Speaker Hoyt said this morning that the | legislature would finish up all it's business l and adjourn by May l. The duties of both | bodies were not of an arduous character to- l day. The town school bill was put over until next week and the different measures were hurried through and an adjournment taken in order to enable the fathers of the State to pay their much -talked-of visit to the Middletown Industrial school. A special train was in readiness to transfer the Solons. When it drew out of the depot there were about one hundred and fifty of the lawmakers on board. There was no change at Berlin and the Industrial school was soon reached, where collation. was enjoyed. Treasurer Brown gave statement of the financial and working state of the school. He told how the demand for girls from the school far ex- ceeded the supply. Other remarks were made by the president and secretary of the institution. The Solons took early afternoon trains for home well pleased with their trip.
 SENATE BUSINESS.
 The House joint resolution in favor of a prot tariff was taken from the calen- dar. It was the one on which Representa- tive Higgins, of Greenwich, made his ex- tended speech. Senator Kirkham offered a substitute merely requesting Connecticut's tot in tO ha Dla ing on the free list of wool, coal, iron, lum- Der, salt, sugar, copper and wood. Senator Leach suggested that it was useless to dis ouss these questions here. Senator Kirkham demanded the yeas and nays on the adoption on his amendment and it was lost-yeas 5, nays II. The vote was:
 Yeas-Sumner, Kirkham, Dunbar, Gallagher Redwood, Hall, Staub Hyde-S.
 Nays-Baiey, Doolittle Graham. Allen, Hill, Burnham, Bates, Hutchins, Leach, Coffiu, Hen ry-1l.
 The House resolution was then adopted by a yea and nay vote-12 to "a strict party vote excepting that Senator Hyde Dem.) voted with the majority. It will thus be into the fold, and that all but Senator Hyde stood firmly by the amendment, which was nothing but Senator Gallagher's original bill. This bill had received the full party vote in the lower house last week.

 PLACING RESTRICTIONS.
 Dr. Parsons, of Enfield, introduced bill regulate the practice of medicine. Mr. Hyde, of Hartford, said that the judiciary committee considered this new business, but were willing to give hearing upon it pro- vided it came in the regular order of refer ence. Mir.
